1. The mom (an economic refugee at best) kidnapped the boy (a crime in this and many other countries), and tried to leave Cuba in a boat known by her to be unsafe, drowning herself and almost killing him in the process. She deserves no further thought or mention. 2. The Miami relatives (not "family" as some media morons repeated so often) spit on the rule of law, saying they would "never" give up Eli…n. Why should they, when keeping him hostage guaranteed them access to media platforms from which they could keep trying (not very effectively, but they seemed to be enjoying themselves) to poke Fidel Castro in the eye?. Now that the federal government has taken away their meal ticket, they are "ashamed to be Americans." If that's not the ultimate irony, it's mighty close. 3. Hopefully, the little remaining political credibility of these pitiful, burnt-out anti-Castro Cuban-Americans went up in the smoke from the tires they set on fire today in Little Havana. 4. I hope they do go to Washington D.C., still pretending that it's all about Eli…n. If the dad gives them any more than the back of his hand he's a better man than I am.
